Publisher's Synopsis
Many leaders believe unlocking high performance is about increasing employee engagement. We're proposing the opposite: focusing on performance is the number one strategy for improving engagement and retention. Why it works? In short: everyone longs to be performing well, and to sincerely hear: "Well done!"
Drawing from the experience of a team of 20 executive coaches with a cumulative 10,000+ hours working with companies of all sizes across the world, ADAPTIVE LEADERS is excited to share our approach to supercharging performance. By combining adaptive leadership characteristics (Courage, Curiosity, and Care) with the 4 components of Performance Leadership (Expectation, Motivations, Measurements, and Accountability) we have seen teams make tremendous performance growth. And engagement and retention go up too! Throughout the book we also remind leaders to "look in the mirror" at how they may have been subconsciously enabling low performance, unclear Expectations, lack of Motivation, bad Measurements, and poor Accountability. With this guidance, exciting performance gains await!
